Such a fun car! Had a lot of fun driving around and got a lot of compliments and everyone in the family wanted a ride! Host was always quick to respond and friendly too! Decent gas mileage, didn't have to fill up until the end of a week long trip. Next time we're in Knoxville, I'll be looking for Lightning again!
